A visual image in the hand of an artist is merely a tool to trigger a mental image.
Roy H. Williams Visual Arts might work especially with the younger students.
1. I got an idea form the back of the cereal box.
Back in the medieval times, each family was symbolized by a special shield with some kind of a symbol which was either a mystical animal or maybe something coming from nature.
The students might want to make their own shield that would feature their family’s name and maybe couple of things that the family is associated with.
2. My Education teacher would show us this activity trying to explain the way children mind works.
She put some shaving cream on the plastic plate and the point of the activity was to teach children how to ‘write’ each letter. Using fingers, students would trace a letter.
3. Also, what can be used for both as Games and Visual Arts...There are many websites that can help the teachers make puzzles. The teacher can google 'Puzzle maker' and the website is right there.
